What did you do with your Z today III

Buck · 06-01-2012, 11:57 PM

The dealer installed a GTM kit. The oil cooler is the standard one that they supply.

Thanks for the Welcome. What have you done to your car?

Buck · 06-02-2012, 12:05 AM

Wow doda 74 that sounds like a real ride. The next time you have clutch problems, install the clutch and flywheel out of a GTR. I got one when I got the SC kit installed and it solved all my clutch problems.

Thats just take it easy driving. With the oil that hot there is no margin to really get on it and let the supercharger spool up. Anyway, nice talking to you all.

Oil cooler means not much in stop and go traffic. Needs airflow to work...

Sorry doda 74 I just re read your post. You already got an way upgraded clutch and flywheel. I guess if Im going to try to talk to people on this thing I better read more carefully.

Understood MB. Maybe an electric fan in front of the oil cooler like the radiator uses. How does you car do with the 25 row oil cooler?

Don't even worry til you hit 250+.

My temps hit 200 while just cruising with a block-off plate covering the whole cooler. Driving hard with the plate on, probably 230s.

"Getting used to air flow" should only take a couple of minutes.

Morning guys

Tracie, my revs will stick while decelerating occasionally. I mostly notice it when I come to a complete stop, sometimes it'll hang high at maybe 1500 rpm. Im not sure why it does it either, but then again, I dont give a fvck
